SPAN 1512: Local Arts/Humanities: US Hispanic, Latina/o/x Topics
University of North Carolina, Charlotte
This Local Theme course uses the methods and insights of the arts and humanities to explore the central question of what it means to be a member of a "local" community. Through the study of the experiences of different peoples, societies, cultural traditions, and modes of expression in communities at the city, regional, or national level, students will be able to better understand the complexity and diversity of the society in which we live. Students are introduced to critical studies of language through a broad engagement with the contributions and presence of Spanish, Hispanic and Latina/o/x cultures in the United States. Course materials may draw widely from language, literature, history, linguistics, film, pop culture, music, cuisine, media, and the arts. Taught in English.
